I'm hoping I can get some suggestions for good, active message boards from the wonderful folks here.
I have been dealing with depression for over a decade. For years, now, I've pretty much been dealing on my own. Haven't been able to afford counseling, I hate the thought of drugs, and I feel bad always burdening my poor husband who also struggles with his own depression. I used to belong to an online depression community years ago, but it seems like that place is not very active anymore. So I'm hoping people here will know of some places I can check out.
Also, I have been coming to some realizations lately. I believe that I may have been emotionally abused in my previous relationship, and even though it has been over and I haven't seen my ex for years, I still find certain things haunting me. I just cannot seem to get past them. And I find some of those things interfering with my marriage now, and that is just not acceptable to me. I need to do some self-analysis on my own, but I was also thinking that talking to others who could relate might also help. However, all my searching seems to bring up non-online communities or those that cater more towards issues that I have never had to deal with, such as physical abuse. Any suggestions in this area would also be greatly appreciated.
